As God, they been watched over us. We're gonna go

-
This is where the Lord Amen led me yesterday in prayer.
-
Amen.
-
I had many directions I could have went, Amen, some
-
directions I would have liked to have went.
-
Amen.
-
But I got down praying Amen, and spent a lengthy
-
period of time in prayer. And this is where the
-
Lord led me Ezekiel Chapian number eleven. I want to
-
say I missed my pastor so much.
-
Amen. Praise God.
-
We know they had this trip planned before Amen. God
-
gave them the assignment to go to Dominica.
-
Amen.
-
I believe it was somewhere around eight to nine months
-
that they had had this planned.
-
Amen.
-
But we know God is working all things out for
-
the good of them called according to his purpose.
-
Amen.
-
We never know why, amen, or what God is doing,
-
but we trust his plan. Amen, Holy and completely. We're

looking forward to what He's gonna do. Amen. Thank you

-
I thank him for this opportunity.
-
Amen. I'm most appreciative. Amen. I feel completely unworthy. Amen.
-
Brother Jesse, could I get some help? I'm gonna have
-
some co text read this morning. I'm sorry I should
-
have mentioned this when I first got up here.
-
Amen. I need one more volunteer.
-
Amen.
-
Yes, I see Brother Samuel's hand. Amen. Praise God, hallyluja.
-
I see that hand. Amen. Y'all heard them preachers say that. Amen.
-
Brother Jesse, if you would find Genesis chapter number thirty two,
-
and then you'll read verses twenty five through thirty one.
-
Brother sam if you would find First Caronicles chapter number thirteen,
-
verses number seven through ten. Amen, First Caronicles thirteen seven
-
through ten, and Brother Jesse, Genesis thirty two, twenty five
-
through thirty one.
-
Amen. If you have that, Brother Jesse, would you read
-
that for us?
-
And when he saw that, he prevailed not against him.
-
He touched the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow
-
of Jacob's thigh was out of joint as he wrestled
-
with him, and he said, let me go, for the
-
day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee
-
go except thou bless me. And he said unto him,
-
what is thy name? And he said Jacob. And he said,
-
thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel.
-
For as a prince, hast thou power with God and
-
with men, And hast prevailed. And Jacob asked him and said,
-
tell me, I pray thee thy name. And he said,
-
wherefore is it that thou? Is it that thou dost
-
ask after my name? And he blessed him there, and
-
Jacob called the place the name of that place Penel,
-
for I have seen God face to face.
-
And my life is preserved.
-
And as he passed over Penal, the son rose upon him,
-
and he halted upon his thigh.
-
Amen, I'd like you to keep that verse right there
-
in mind.
-
Amen.
-
As he passed over, Amen, the son rose upon him. Amen,
-
and Jacob, Amen. People from a distance would have been
-
able to tell something, and happened to him Amen, he
-
was walking differently. Amen, Brother Samuel, First Chronicles, thirteen, verses
-
seven through ten, My brother, And they.
-
Carried the ark of God in a new cart out
-
of the house of Benedet. And as a court and David,
-
all of Israel played before God with their might and
-
with singing, and with harps, and with sultry, and with timbrels,
-
and with symbols and with trumpets. And when they came
-
unto the threshold of Chida, on Uza put forth his
-
hand to hold the art for the oxen. The oxen stumbled,
-
and the angle of the Lord kindled against Uzzah, and
-
he smote him because he put forth his hand to
-
the art, and there before got there, and there he
-
died before God.
-
Oh yes, Amen.
-
There the Bible tells us a little bit about a
-
story we're familiar with. And I've read the account of
-
that story in Kings.
-
Amen.
-
And it doesn't give us the description of why Usa
-
had to do what he did.
-
Amen.
-
But first Caronicles tells us the oxen stumbled.
-
Amen.
-
And this is what led to us, Amen, making the
-
grave and terrible mistake.
-
Amen. He did.
-
I mean, I'm gonna preach just for a little while Amen,
-
a message the Lord titled out of out of step,
-
but in tune. Amen, go with me to Ezekiel chapter
-
number eleven. We're gonna read ninth Versus nineteen through twenty one,
-
and the Bible said, I will give them one heart,
-
and I will put a new spirit within you. And
-
I will take the stony heart out of their flesh,
-
and will give them a heart of flesh, that they
-
may walk in my statutes and keep mine ordinances. That
-
they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances
-
and do them, and they shall be my people, and
-
I will be their God. But as for them whose
-
heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and
-
their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads.
-
Saith the Lord God. Amen, stretch your hands forward Heaven.
-
Ask God to help us this morning.
-
Lord. We thank you God that we are in your house. God.
-
We thank you for truth and righteousness. We thank you
-
for your words. God. We thank you for each one
-
but's here. God.
-
We thank you Lord that we can't stand on these
-
Truth God, that are self evidence. God. They are here
-
before us God, and we can plainly see God. Your promises, Lord,
-
your words your warnings. God, would you come, by Lord
-
and speak to your children this morning. Please anoint God
-
this message. God. Let it go through a fourth God,
-
and do what you would have it accomplished.
-
God.
-
Let every stronghold God be pulled down in every chain broken.
-
God, through your anointing power.
-
God, we ask you help us, God, to say nothing
-
more and nothing less than you would have us.
-
God.
-
Lord God, let us lead this place joyfully and not sorrowfully,
-
and we'll give you the glory, the honor, and the
-
praise in Jesus Holy Holy Name. And the church said,
-
Amen and Amen. I thank God, Amen for always doing here.
-
I thank God for the words of God that we
-
can go back and look at. Amen, And they give
-
us clarity Amen on some things.
-
Amen.
-
You know the Bible Amen, has never left a Christian wondering.
-
Amen.
-
The Bible has never left someone saying, well, what's truth
-
and what's righteousness? It paints a very black and white picture.
-
Amen.
-
And you can tell clearly, Amen, the defined lines of
-
which God has asked his people to walk in.
-
Amen.
-
Now, this book of the Bible, as pastor would say,
-
it bears the name of its author. I've always loved that, Aman,
-
this book of the Bible. Its name kind of acts
-
as a prologue to the book and prepares the reader
-
to listen in or read the heartfelt messages, prophecies, promises,
-
and warnings of the mighty Prophet. Ezekiel. Now he was
-
a descendant of the well known and very influential priestly family,
-
that family of Zadok the priest and Amen, he would
-
have been reared and raised, most likely in Jerusalem and
-
was well versed in the rituals of the Temple of
-
Jehovah or Yah.
-
He was a priest in training.
-
But we find later on he would be a prophet
-
by calling.
-
Amen.
-
We know of other men, Amen, such as Ezekiel, that
-
became a man of prophet by calling.
-
Such was John the Baptist.
-
Amen that God would call him out of a priestly
-
lineage and sent him a min on a path of prophecy,
-
a man apostle. Paul said he was one born out
-
of due time, and Ezekiel would have been such a
-
one before Amen, he was carried into exile here.
-
Amen, he would have been someone that was.
-
Learning how to go about and be about the father's
-
business in the temple.
-
Amen.
-
But somewhere around the age of twenty five to thirty,
-
he receives a heavenly and divine calling. It is an assignment,
-
and he carried with him through his ministry a great
-
burden for the people of God. For he knew that
-
they were going to be held accountable.
-
Amen.
-
At a word, even our generation don't like anymore accountability.
-
Ezekiel had an understanding, and his burden made him Amen
-
very well and propelled him to preach to a generation
-
that Amen, he knew was about to be punished for
-
they were right.
-
Amen for the judgment of God. Amember.
-
Also in Ezekiel you find a man that had a
-
deep held conviction Amen, that there was hope Amen for restoration,
-
and there was hope for salvation for God's people.
-
Amen.
-
And I still believe we find ourselves Amen. Some people
-
do and in various situations where the Word of God
-
is applicable to sima in some ways and others in
-
other ways. Amen, For there is still a message of
-
regeneration and repentance that is being preached that Amen is
-
needed to be heeded by many that are hearing it.
-
Amen. And then there are also amen, words of promise. Amen.
-
In prophecy that there is a grater revival coming, and
-
the Lord is about to hope, and the windows of
-
heaven and pour out of blessing him.
-
Amen.
-
So David Ezekiel, rather we saw him in his heart
-
as he poured into the people of God, starting about
-
at the age of twenty five to thirty. Amen, he
-
begins to be about the Father's business and to herald
-
the great warnings and the great messages and all that
-
God would put in his heart. He began to speak
-
into the life of these captives here in Babylon. He
-
would warn the of Amen to turn from sin, and
-
he would encourage them to look to God.
-
Amen.
-
Some people turned from one sin, Amen, and find themselves
-
in another cesspool because they didn't put their affections in hope, Amen,
-
in something that was better, Amen, in something that could
-
have helped them to overcome what they were dealing with.
-
Amen. And Ezekiel Amen was a man that had the solution. Amen.
-
And we know what the solution is even today. It's Jesus, Amen.
-
For those that have turning aside and given up and
-
those that are going to the wayside. The solution, I
-
believe it might have been Brother Samuel. They been preests
-
on salvation. A man is still the solution, and it
-
still is today for every Amen, person that's struggling to
-
live holy, every person that can't quite.
-
Get a hold of what they need. Amen. Yeah, they
-
come and act religious. Amen.
-
And the Jews, no, Dad would have been no different.
-
These Israelites, they men would have been living in Babylon, claiming, Amen,
-
we have Abraham to our Father. I mean we have
-
this prophet and this judge to our Father. I mean
-
he's in our lineage. He was somebody and God worked
-
through him.
-
Amen.
-
But what they were for missing, they man, what they
-
needed was a relationship with God. For in Babylon they
-
begin to take on baggage and to take on bondage.
-
They were already under bondage, but they begin to experience
-
spiritual bondage. And there's many a person that darken as
-
the doors the church, and they come in and they've
-
yet to have a new heart.
-
They've yet to undergo.
-
They made a new heart, Transplanta, and Dear this morning,
-
I preach it theymen under you.
-
The men, too many are in step with the world.
-
Too many are walking according to the lust of the
-
flesher and fulfeeling the desires arrive, they man. And when
-
you're in step with the world, they man, you were
-
attitude with God. When you're in step with the world,
-
you are no longer in touch with God. For here
-
the love of the world, they man. The love of
-
the Father is not anybody you can't come professing. They
-
mean to be God's child. When you're living like the
-
world and in tune with the world, your emotions are
-
knit to them. They are your near kinsmen. They man
-
your mindset. It's like theirs, they man. The way you
-
live is like theirs. What you do on a weekly
-
basis that man, there's no different than what they're doing.
-
Don't claim to be in Israelie.
-
When you're living like bah blah Lord, ay man, don't
-
claim to be God's child. And they mean to be
-
expiriting the blessings of God. When your heart tells on
-
you that it's stony, when you need a new one,
-
ay man, If you ain't got a new hard, you'll
-
find it harder to walk in His priests, Aft saymen
-
now verse number nineteen. And I will give them one heart,
-
and I will put a new spirit within you, and
-
I will take away the stony heart out of their flesh,
-
and We'll give them a heart of flesh. Now this
-
verse is prophetic in its nature. Amen, And it is
-
now realized Amen. Among the children of God. It is
-
the hope, Amen, that more excellent calling. Theymen that Jesus
-
would come and die, Amen, and he would offer us
-
something new Amen. And they said it this morning, he
-
would offer us something better.
-
Amen.
-
And God is offering us all, Amen, a new opportunity,
-
a new heart. Remember too many or to content with
-
the stony heart, with that heart that can't be touched
-
by God's word, that heart that is no longer sensitive
-
to the spirit. They come to God's house and the
-
message can't touch them, The song service can't move them.
-
The altar service never changes them. Women, friend, if you're
-
that manner of person, a man, and you never feel
-
the need to come down here without being drug out,
-
being drug here, I mean there's something wrong. I've never
-
too been too big. The man are too great in
-
God to find an altar of repentance. But there's many
-
a stony heart that comes into God's house and pretend
-
they don't need the words of God and the man
-
of God and the amen they ever did or the
-
Holy ghost in their lives. Matter what they are is
-
they're a dead person. We mean they are that white
-
of sepulcura. Remember, there's nothing popping life inside. There's nothing
-
a man of spiritual nature that's a stirring and a
-
moving there. A stony harder ain't never pumped to drop
-
a liquidor that's a rocker. A man outside of the
-
goodness of God has never rudded forth a man living
-
Liquidor remember when God got a hold of it, even
-
in Moses's day, he took that which should not have
-
we maan it contain something of life in it, a man,
-
and he made it live, He made it breathe, He
-
made an issue forth an the words of life. Man,
-
if you're here this morning and you ain't felt God
-
this week, and you ain't felt God this morning, we
-
may now tell you what's wrong with you.
-
A man.
-
You're still living in in old nature. You're still living
-
in a stony harder. You're still living without the life
-
giving power of God. And you depend on that stony
-
harder to get you through. But what you need is
-
the power of God. Some seem to get the cart
-
before the horse. Amen, pardon me, for a moment. Some
-
seem to get their cart before the horse, and they
-
attempt to come to church and be spiritual, and all
-
they got is stony, I mean.
-
Old hard, Amen. Heart. You can't be led of God
-
with a heart like that. Amen. You can't live during
-
the week with a heart like that.
-
But they love to come on Sunday and Wednesday and
-
for tend like they've got what they need. And Amen,
-
they know good and well they've been living like the
-
devil in the week.
-
Aymen, Praise God. What are they doing?
-
They're getting the amen their righteousness Amen, before regeneration.
-
Amen. And there is still a.
-
Man of God in heaven that would like to impart
-
under you of his nature and creating you a new
-
and a clean Oh God. Amen, you ever amen, thought
-
about those two words, A new and a clean old God.
-
He'll do Amen for you what he's done for so
-
many others.
-
Amen.
-
It'll be a new way of talking, a new way
-
of walking, a new way of thinking, Oh God. But
-
too many continue to live Amen. And the old mindset
-
with the old heart. Remember then they come to God's
-
house and pretend like they've got a hold of the spirit.
-
Amen.
-
But the Bible said, Amen, you praise God. Those amen
-
that'll let of the Lord are the sons of God
-
and God that lead them to cuss on Monday. And
-
God didn't lead them to cuss on Tuesday. But then
-
they come to his house and pretend they've.
-
Got his power.
-
You ain't got nothing but an old that's writing stony
-
heart and man, when you're living like the devil, you're
-
living in the old man, in the old nature. A man,
-
I'll tell you what's wrong with you. You've yet to be regenerated.
-
And you claim the power of God. Man, you claim
-
the anointing of God. When you're living like the world,
-
you're on your way to.
-
A devil's hell. If that's your lifestyle.
-
If that's the way you move and walker in him,
-
I move live and have my big Amen. He's never
-
made because or to listen to a worldly's dog, he's
-
never made begin a latitude.
-
Ay, I feel about like preaching writing you're out of
-
step with the spirit.
-
Hey, you know they ever heard him say my spirit animal.
-
There's Christians supposedly in the church and their spirit animal
-
brother Caleb is an octopus for everything that's going on
-
in the world. They seem to know about it. They
-
seem to know what singer put out the new song
-
they man, they seem to know what the new fashion is.
-
They seem to know, Amen, what the latest lingo is.
-
I'll tell you what your spirit animal is.
-
The man.
-
You're too in tune with the world. You're into in
-
touch with them. And there ain't no way on God's
-
green Earth or his holy Heaven.
-
That you have what you professor.
-
Waymen, when you possess a Amen, an old stony heart
-
and a sin nature that encourages you to live like
-
the world during the week and then try to pretend
-
to be God's child on the Lord's day, I gotta hurry.
-
Galatians five and sixteen said.
-
This. I say, then walk in the spirit, and you
-
shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
-
Amen. If you're struggling.
-
To live according to God's word and it's hard for you,
-
You've got to learn how to walk in the spirit,
-
to be sensitive to his voice, to be sensitive to
-
your conscience. Amen, to line up with the words of
-
God and put on the mind of Christ. Well, how
-
do I do that? A good place to start and
-
start lining up with his words and his instructions to
-
start lining up with the amen what God delivers you
-
on a weekly bathist amen from your pastor in this
-
poopy andy, man, you're gonna stay out of touch with
-
God and out of tune with the spirit of the
-
men as Lord as you're trying to stay up with
-
and keep up with the joneses, as long as you're
-
trying to keep up with the car worker on the job.
-
They meen, and it's a competition for you. They meant
-
to tell the nastiest joker. It's a competition for you
-
the meen to have the dirtiest in your window. Oh God, man,
-
you ain't saved. They met no more than the devil
-
wheels when you'd rather be in touch with Hell. Ain't
-
hurrymen shielded they met, But then pretend you've got something
-
on Sunday.
-
Amen, I got cutting met this morning. That's all right.
-
You ever seen them?
-
People say, I don't understand it, and pastors talked us
-
about this. In my eyes were open. I remember as
-
a young man, I don't get it. I don't understand it.
-
And then a meen he brought that stripture amen from
-
the pool pit that opened my eyes so wonderfully.
-
Some things are spiritually deserned. Amen.
-
Sometimes you need that regeneration to understand why it's important.
-
Sometimes you need that new heart. And it does away
-
with the questions. Amen, it does away with all that's
-
going on in your mind, that whirlwind.
-
Amen.
-
If you'll get the spirit of God and you'll get
-
a new heart, Amen, some things just come so easy Aymen.
-
For his children, he empowers them, Amen, and gives them
-
what they need.
-
Aymen.
-
He's never told us they mean to live a hard life.
-
It's never been hard for me.
-
Amen.
-
It's never been something I've struggled with. Amen.
-
I've never fought with it. Aymen.
-
I've never thought I'd rather fit in they been with
-
the coworkers on the job, Amen, then be a Christian.
-
I've never struggled with that. Amen. I've never been intimidated
-
or Aymen.
-
Self peer pressure pushed me to a point where I
-
said I'd rather lose Jesus Aymen, to fit in in
-
this lunch hour, of this thirty minutes. I mean, oh
-
what Amen, A simple mindset we can have and mean
-
when we forsake the precepts of God, they mean just
-
to fit in with those around us, Amen, and the
-
Israelites moved down to Babylon. They're in exile. And in
-
one place, it says the men they were living in
-
their own houses, and man, they were on the they
-
were kind of.
-
On their own time.
-
Yet in exile. Amen, and they begin to adapt to
-
the customs. This was many a downfall. That mean for
-
many a generation, the men of the children of Israel,
-
when they begin to adapt to the world, and what
-
does the world begin to do? And the church? Amen,
-
they begin to conform to each other. The men they're
-
living like one another, man yet claiming they still have God.
-
And in the Bible does speak of a way that
-
seemth unto a man who talks of a broadway. A
-
man he talks of a path. They man that he
-
ends in destruction. They man, praise God to us. No surprise,
-
they man, that the majority of people seem to.
-
Be on this path.
-
It's no surprise to me that the majority of the
-
majority of them out there. They men are living like
-
they're living. They men are walking like they're walking, and
-
they're talking like they're talking.
-
The men.
-
But the problem is the church world. They man now says,
-
I can be a Christian and do the same a
-
man has in wrong the man, I live like a Roman,
-
and while in Babylona, I worship like a Babylona, all
-
the compromising spirit of name.
-
And when he said, wink upon me, they may look
-
upon me.
-
Kindly pray that God would overlook me when my master
-
goes to his temple. What about you, friend the man?
-
Will they man nod your head and bob you head?
-
Amen to the bosses music, because you're right with the
-
fitanda man where you bopped your head? Amen, praise God
-
and agree with the feeldy language that comes across the stereo.
-
A man, does you write from job to job? Hey, man,
-
what are you doing? You're conforming through the ways of
-
the world. When you're beginning, Amen, to act like of her.
-
You're beginning, Amen, to blend in with him and what
-
you're doing the whole time he is getting out of touch.
-
With the spirit. You're starting to walk in the flesh. Man.
-
You're not walking in the spirit. Man, you're living according
-
to your desires and your whims and what the devil
-
and his shielding are doing. When your reasoning becomes altered
-
and your thought process begins to allign with those on
-
the broadway, when the way you think in the life
-
you lead, a man has more in common with the
-
world and its agenda. I mean, you have sadly been affected.
-
You'd be surprised how many people claim to be Christians
-
and sit on church pews and they feel like they're
-
Amen's thought process aligns more with the abortion clinics and men.
-
You'd be surprised how many men come to church and
-
they say the music identify with the most Brother Caleb.
-
Amen. Is that song that secular singer road?
-
Why is that? And why do you identify with that?
-
Why is your thought process aligning with?
-
Amen? The world? Women? Why is what you do on
-
a weekly basis?
-
Theymen measured and graded by the world standers women. When
-
you're walking in such a lifestyle, the men, you are
-
forsaking the love of the Father.
-
When you begin to love theymen and treasure aymen.
-
Praise God. Depend on the men. What's going on in
-
the world to give you sustenance?
-
Amen.
-
And you get more out of tik Taker women than
-
you do the Word of God. When you get more
-
out of YouTube, then you do your prayer life. You
-
are not walking in the spirit, but rather conforming to
-
the lust of the flesher.
-
They man, there's a whole lot. Alahah, they man. They
-
could tell you more so they men.
-
All the dances on tiktaker they men, then they could
-
have stops twenty three. It stops one hundred. The men
-
they have a mind to remember ize theymen the secretizations
-
of the devil. They remember no mind to remember the
-
exhortations of the world.
-
Oh why is that?
-
Because they don't have a new hard They've got a
-
stony heart. Why do they find their suster it's on
-
Monday and Tuesday on the YouTube.
-
Instead of the words of God.
-
They're walking according to the lust of the flesher and
-
fulfilling the.
-
Pride their rival in their own life.
-
When they come to God's house, they pretend to be
-
Santa when they're sinners.
-
A man in the wh that supplicant. I know this
-
is different. Amen.
-
Yeah, Ezra is now preacher Ezekiel. Rather, he is now
-
preaching to a people living in exile. I mean they're
-
they're invested with idolatry and I to worship. They're invested
-
with paganism. It's taking hold of the what was the church?
-
They mean, it's taking hold of their religious sectary. Amen,
-
what was Judaism? And what was Yahweh worship Aymen now
-
has become prevalent. Amen to see them also down Amen
-
offering and sacrifice at the Amen at the worldly pagan temples.
-
Amen.
-
A's no, they been strange thing to encounter a so
-
called believer, Aymen, as he made sacrifice also to another God,
-
even though they had the precepts of Moses. They mean
-
to talk to them about her who man, how they
-
should walk and live, and how God was a jealous
-
god and he would have no other gods before him,
-
and men they begin to conform. They mean, we know
-
of the spiritual ramifications of the men, what the Bible
-
call spiritual adulta. That men, when we began to have
-
a Amen, an affair with the world, when we our
-
desires began to have an affair with the world. And
-
I'll tell you women, what happened to Demus. I'm gonna
-
call him demons the adulterer this morning, Amen. FORO, it
-
began to go places in his mind he shouldn't have been.
-
He began to get on the maps here a man
-
praise God and look upon things he shouldn't have done.
-
I mean, I know he didn't, but this is us spiritually.
-
I mean, I'm talking to you this morning than me
-
the men.
-
When you get on that half Amen, in your eyegate
-
is seeking out Amen, Just that one thing you stumble
-
across in an hour and you pause.
-
Amen.
-
The Bible said, praise God, ay man, if you look
-
again and there is a siner of a second glance,
-
there is a serena of a second looker, Amen. Him.
-
Too many people are finding themselves in trouble on their
-
masks because when they went by, they went back and
-
found it. I'll tell you what you are. You're a
-
spiritual horn monger. God sees you no different to try you,
-
and God heead watched you do it. They saw you
-
do it, Amen, and they said, I will have.
-
No barder in him.
-
I will not delight in him, nor dwell with him
-
who is turning back under the weakened, beggarly hllments up
-
this world like a dog to the vomited. You return,
-
Oh God, I wish somebody'd help me preach for just
-
a little while longer.
-
I should like a dog. You been going back like
-
a pig.
-
You ben a waller when you're coming God's heaven a
-
women in his house in this little piece of real
-
estate woman that is dedicated to him, with your old mastery,
-
dirty stone harder, pretending like you're a diamond in the ruffa. Remember,
-
if you're a living like the world, you are no
-
diamond in the ruffer. Wo Man, you're a rocker that
-
can't be touched. But that one that had a rocky harder,
-
he said, up. They don't fall on me. I will
-
fall on them, and what's left to them we will
-
be nothing more than powder. There will be no more
-
stability or strengthen them to do what they want to
-
and I will smash them, obliterate them, and destroy them.
-
Oh God, Hellelujah, I gotta hurry, Amen who I'm on
-
page two? My God, I carried away this morning. I
-
got a burden to preach to you though.
-
Amen.
-
You want to hear more preaching, or go to the
-
chicken house, and the church said chicken house. Amen, Praise God.
-
We missed our pastor this morning so much. The modern
-
church world presents a halt and withered gospel, one where
-
we have no power to live above sin. They preach
-
a Bethesda doctrine, and Brother Jonathan, they preach a man.
-
A lame man that would have laid there all his life.
-
That's the gospel they preach.
-
A man.
-
They preach a gospel where the saint hobbles the they
-
been bound with drug addiction. They preach a gospel where
-
the saint battle and then stumbles in and still with
-
his alcoholism, and here is condemned, Aymen, Praise God. Penance
-
is to lay there on the porches.
-
Oh God, I'm telling you.
-
God has never required penance on the porch, aymen. But
-
He has preached to all Amen, and heralded to all
-
through his servants that there is power to live and
-
walk above the sin line. So don't you come to
-
me this morning, aymen, and tell me you're a halt
-
saint and you're a withered Christian when God said you
-
can live above it? And howard to have power to
-
walk over it?
-
Amen? Oh God?
-
They come Amen, bit by the serpenta. Remember God's children
-
wouldn't be so.
-
Amen.
-
They come boys, and by sin theymen. But God's people
-
wouldn't be so. So what he is, aymen? Praise God?
-
They evidenceer Amen. At the end of the conclusion, if
-
he gave them power to tread on it, and he
-
gave them power Amen to not be Amen.
-
Praise God. Amen, Praise God.
-
Affected by her aymen, these poisons of the world.
-
Amen.
-
And they come in harder and withrough and bothered. They
-
are none of his. They men, they have not lived
-
according to His word. They men, when they come in
-
found they've been going places they shouldn't have winn. When
-
you come to God's house and you know, Amen, you
-
and God, the spirit of God when it blows through
-
the house and forwarding in fifty shower, Remember you sit there.
-
You're out of touch with God. You're out of step
-
with His spirit. But I'd rather be out of step.
-
With the world.
-
Were in turned with a spirit, I'd rather be out
-
of step with this old, filthy, disgusting Worldmen, to be
-
endurned with a spirit. Of your spiritual condition tells on
-
you when you have no power, you have no strengthen
-
when you're an.
-
Old, withered, puny soul.
-
But needs regeneration. It is now a church world. Well,
-
you can't tell where Babylon ends and the church begins.
-
It is now profession Christians.
-
And man.
-
And you can't tell where l G B t Q
-
ends and the church begins. That is not of God.
-
It is now with church.
-
Amen.
-
World where you can't tell where the Friday night pub
-
ended and Sunday morning service started.
-
Amen. That is a problem, friend, they been when we walk.
-
More according to the world and her desires and her
-
mindsets and thought processes. Amen, I'll tell you what the
-
issue is. You might even have a form Amen, but
-
you have no power. And there's a lot of them
-
claim the power and have no form a Man, I
-
don't care which one you are. If you're a charismatic
-
that says they've got the power and they've got no form, Amen,
-
they've got no praise God, representation of Jesus and his word,
-
they still claim.
-
To have what they have. Or you're in here then
-
this morning and.
-
You've got the garb of God's child on Amen, but
-
you have no power. You should feel the spirit of
-
God bloid in the song service, and you should feel
-
a twinge of the spirit.
-
Amen. Tickle your Holy ghost. Amen.
-
Shouting bonner Amen in the middle of a message. Amen,
-
Praise God. You know I'm in tune with what's going on.
-
Aymen.
-
It's speaking to me and our spirits are bearing witness.
-
Man.
-
If you come to God's house, they men, Brother Philip,
-
and they never feel like they bore witness with what
-
was said. They men, but they're always in contradiction up here.
-
I'll tell you your problem.
-
They men.
-
You ain't serving the same master and you don't have
-
the same God. They man, you're walking according to principalities
-
and powers and the rulers of darkness.
-
Of this world.
-
That men, when you identify with and would rather be
-
praise God, Amen at the world he restaurant.
-
They men.
-
Where they've got the music turned up, remember them singing
-
our fly away And men, when you got rear buds in,
-
if you've got more of a bee baha and a
-
pepper and your steppa to a secular singer and that
-
car sterio, it's blasting out the latest or the devil's
-
possessed people. And that's when you feel like you fit in,
-
and that's when you feel like you've really made something.
-
Of your cell.
-
The man, your issue is we're out of touch with
-
the spirit of women and your in tune with the world.
-
Your tenacins wrapped around women, praise God, things, rust of
-
the flesh and desires, Oh God. And the issue is
-
that man, it won't be too long and they'll grab
-
you back and you won't get free if they haven't already. Women,
-
that half you'll get a hold of you, and you
-
can't let it go. That genre will get a hold
-
of you, and you won't be better release it, but
-
it'll breed women things of its nature in your heart
-
you'll leave behind them in the things of the sea
-
is faster, once said the man. They will be the
-
evidences what the world in your life as it strangles
-
the life out of you and leaves you back in
-
a dead stay. Amen o God shore, do you walk
-
out of step with the world?
-
It matter?
-
Have you begun to step in time? Do you find
-
yourself marching to the rhythm of the bide Piper's melody?
-
Do you find.
-
Define Friday by the world's definition? It's your definition of
-
a good day metered by Babilon's description? Does Babilons description
-
of fashion?
-
Amen?
-
Meeter her and in your attire? I know, Amen, Praise God.
-
I'm trying to make some enemies this morning. I guess
-
h it mean I'm trying my best to share a
-
burden with you.
-
I'm trying my best.
-
And in the minute that's the truth of the word
-
of God is a new heart that they may walk
-
in My statutes and keep my ordinances. So without the
-
new heart, you ain't gonna do it. You'll be a pharisee.
-
And what the pharisee when it came down to them
-
fulfilling their office, even their heart condemned them, and they
-
cannot follow through with their role. Your heart tells you,
-
your hypocrite. Your heart tells you when you've messed up
-
and missed it.
-
Amen.
-
And then in that moment when you were supposed to
-
tell that Amen, co worker on the job, Jesus loves you,
-
and he's not happy about that. And you know good
-
and well you listen to the same garbage on the
-
way in the work, and man, you can't condemn him
-
in his sin when you've got it living in you.
-
And there's a whole church world that because they Amen,
-
can offer a word of conviction.
-
Amen, not condemnation, but conviction. Amen.
-
They just said, why can'tah Amen beat them? So I'll
-
join them instead, Amen. And that's why the child world
-
looks like Babylon, because nobody they man had the power Amen,
-
in the authority and the relationship with God to stand
-
up and say, Amen.
-
That was wrong. We all know it was wrong. We
-
saw you living like that in the week. Amen. Praise God.
-
There Amen, there he is, Amen. Praise God.
-
A word of God that goes forth based on what
-
the preacher man saw.
-
Amen.
-
And there's a lot of pastors that aren't willing to
-
preach about what they saw.
-
God gave you I gaze for a reason, Amen.
-
And God gave the minister and the messenger of God Amen, eyesight,
-
because without the eyesight, Amen, you and the minister would
-
fall in the So don't fault him when he sees
-
you living like the devil and tells you, Amen, we'll
-
have none of that here.
-
Amen. For God gave him.
-
Eyesight and spiritual vision for this same reason, that he
-
might look over the floka and see the one that's
-
straying and correct and chasing them back in to lie. Remember,
-
too many get too up tied about when the minister
-
talks to them. They get a oh God, Amen, they
-
get right down. They'men angry about it, and they fume
-
and they message him afterwards.
-
Amen, and that this is the problem. I tell you
-
what it is.
-
They man, you're walking according to the lust of the
-
flesher man. When you can't receive correction to women when
-
you're on pins and needles, waiting for offense or the remen.
-
The Bible says, you're harder to be one of the
-
fence city women. So when does the pastor quit wasting
-
his arrows on you, those arrows of love? When does
-
he quit besieging your city and your heart?
-
Woman?
-
Because you're so obstinate and resistive to the words of God.
-
Ezekiel is talking to him and telling them, I see
-
you need something. You need something to come God. You
-
need to turn aside. Oh such a water. Stop Wait
-
a minute, women, let me tell you what you need
-
to do. Remember they were running a headlong into women,
-
God's judgment and wrath remen and God told him in
-
one place they been, your house will be a cauldron,
-
and you'll be the flesher. He's gonna boil you right
-
where you sit and right where you're living. He's gonna
-
make a beginning. Then when he does make that beginning,
-
he is a god that makes an end women very quickly.
-
When God's judgment starts, women, God will make an end
-
to women your parnismanty man, that they may walk in
-
my statue and keep my ordinances and do them. God
-
gave them a new heart that they might not fulfill
-
the lust of the flesh.
-
Amen.
-
But many claim a new heart, but the old walk.
-
And men many claim, Amen, a new heart, but the
-
old walk. And then there was a say it Amen,
-
and I picked up the origins. Amen, I believe. And
-
then the reasons some of them prenecostal preachers would say it, Amen,
-
was because of some of the things they were dealing
-
with in their generation.
-
Amen. They'd say, I walk right and spit white. Amen.
-
Because back then there was a many a so called
-
dipping Christians. Amen, there was a many a so called
-
amen alcoholic believers.
-
Amen. Praise God.
-
Let that not be named among us a a man.
-
Praise God, and be not Romans twelve and two. And
-
be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed
-
by the renewing of your mind.
-
This world.
-
Renewing is G thirty forty in the Stronges concordance. If
-
you want to check me, it means the renovation, a
-
complete change for the better, a complete change for the better,
-
a renovation. Ay, when I'm finding God coming in and
-
rearranging me, cleaning me up and making me new. Amen,
-
Praise God, cutting that old nasty heart out. And they'm
-
been plugging, Amen, something more than a thumping gizzard in there.
-
Amen. But I mean we've heard it preach before.
-
Amen, the bad idea of which brought about certain judgment.
-
I'm gonna have to I may have to skim through this.
-
I left my phone down there. I don't know what
-
time it is, Amen. But David made a very very
-
bad decision. And we all know Amen, what brought about that,
-
and how the Philistines put it on an arc and
-
it worked for them. And God used the arc Amen
-
to get it down to the high else he needed
-
it to go to. And David comes to a point
-
in his life he finally gets, aymen, what he's been
-
what he's been a've been waiting on.
-
He finally gets what he's been needing.
-
Amen, And he says, you know what, I'd have the
-
ark of God a man come back to me. And David,
-
in his efforts a man to bring about a swift
-
into this, he bypasses the laws of God for God's
-
people for in in in the fifteenth chapter of this verse,
-
David admits this, and he says, the reason, I mean,
-
I'll see if I can find it for because she
-
did it not at the first the Lord, our God
-
made a breach upon us for that we sought him,
-
not after the due order. And David steps back in
-
chronicles after the fact that he says, the reason God
-
smote us of was.
-
Because I put this thing on a card. Amen.
-
And there's a lot of people Amen, seeking the easy salvation,
-
easy believism, Amen, an easy walk with God where they
-
sacrifice nothing and they try to bring about the fruits
-
in a new convert's life, the easy way. Oh, come
-
down here, say I believe in Jesus. I believe he
-
was Amen, dead, barried, resurrected. Oh, I'm saved. I'm shouting happy.
-
I walk away.
-
Amen.
-
David knew Amen, of the revelation of God and of
-
the long process which a man, a man who would
-
literally talk face to face with God Amen, had depicted
-
it should be dna.
-
Amen.
-
And there are still some though, despite the words of
-
God and its revelation to us. Amen, they still go
-
the way they want to go. And David put this
-
thing on in our on a praise God, a card,
-
a new card, and he's traps it up to some
-
auction and he's doing what he does he needs to do.
-
They're still having church they're still dancing and singing, they're
-
still sacrificing.
-
Amen.
-
But there's something missing, and it's the laws of God
-
and the commandments of God. And too many say, Amen,
-
I don't care what the word says.
-
I know what the spirit told me.
-
I'll tell you you're out of touch with the Holy
-
Ghost and in tune with a spirit. If it contradicts anything.
-
If anyone comes a woman preaching hetory other doctrine than
-
that which was first delivered under the Saints, you should
-
count yimccurst. You should plug your ears. You shouldn't hear
-
his words. You should put up a burrier in a
-
guard and realize, women, that is a n ip of
-
hell trying to influence you.
-
Contrar to the words of God.
-
If it's Mama or Daddy, cut them off and shut
-
it off.
-
They'll affect you drastically. Amen. Praise God.
-
If it's an elder, even the woman that's supposed to
-
be revered, when they God dedict the pastor and the
-
words of God, women, you put up.
-
A wall and say, I'll have none of that.
-
David did it like the Philistines, and people started dying.
-
David started doing it like the church world women, praise
-
God if you would.
-
The monitor church change and there's a lot of.
-
Them, they say, Brother Caleber, prominent pastor so and so
-
said it's okay for his congregation and youth. Pastor so
-
and so sanna, hey man, we could get by with it.
-
And they start doing it like the Philistines. Heymen, I'll
-
tell you who they ben. Praise God started the short
-
skirt and all this nonsense. It was Philistines. It was Babylon. Remember,
-
we started living like Babylon, expressly expecting the blessings of God.
-
David thought he was going to get the power of
-
God women in his short cuts. Aymen, praise God in
-
your short cuts. Hey man, you won't ever get the
-
authority in power of God or the sustenance in his
-
word or it's blessing on his people. But you'll started losing,
-
hey man, you're young people. You'll started losing people that
-
lost their fear for God and his place and his power.
-
Hey man, Praise God. It is preeminence. And who's he
-
ain't man?
-
Praise God.
-
He saw the ark rocker, heymen, and he crossed the
-
line he shouldn't have because the oxen stomboled us have
-
put forth his hand to hold the ark for the
-
oxen stumbled. David opened the doors. He chose to do
-
it the way of the world, and then his plan
-
was to get it done the quick and easy and
-
painless way.
-
But oh, how it backfires. Amen.
-
Parents are forsaking their responsibilities that they may remain friends.
-
Pastors are sinking the requirements that they may remain politician.
-
And men.
-
David tried to get it done quick and easy. A man,
-
he didn't try to put no burden undue strain. I'm
-
en sure the church feels. Amen, the burden and the pressure. Amen,
-
as God begins to try to build someone up. But
-
there's a lot of pastors don't like it. Aymen, anybody
-
feeling any kind of strain. They remember, since when has
-
it been wrong? They mean for us to be called
-
up higher and called to a higher place with God.
-
They mean David here did it his way, and the
-
issue was someone overreached.
-
Amen.
-
Parents, Amen, we must still use, Amen, the right of God,
-
even if it makes the counsel they been praise God
-
of the house uncomfortable. Oh God, Amen, Parents, we must
-
still correct and chase it.
-
They been be times the men.
-
There's a whole generation, Brother Caleb, aymen, and you know it,
-
and I know it. Ur whole generation knows that we're
-
living in turmo in this society because parents wanted to
-
be close friends instead of fulfill their role. They man,
-
they wanted the easy rout. They mean to get them
-
to eighteen and out of the house. They man, they
-
wanted at least a man of conflict. And now there's
-
a they mean a whole generation. They man that isn't
-
responsible or accountable because mom and Dad refused They mean
-
to do it God's way. They refuse to get under
-
the load as the Leavites would have had to and
-
bear their burdens and their responsibilities. It wasn't my words
-
that said, hey man, you've got to chasing the other.
-
They maen it even said they met a little bit
-
of description there.
-
With a rod.
-
I didn't say that, he men, but blessed God God's
-
words said it. I know That's what I'm saying. The
-
mindset of this generation, he's out of touch with God's word.
-
They're out of touch with God's will. A man, if
-
they say that's a view, I'll tell you one of
-
the other it's lah for they're ever dying. They've been
-
praise God ever living soul. The generation tells me, don't
-
do it.
-
God's wort says too, I'll take the spirit.
-
They've been over the spirit of this world every day
-
of the week, and.
-
Three times on Sunday.
-
We're losing our eyss because we didn't teach them respect.
-
We're losing our uses because we told him it was
-
okay to have pastor.
-
They have been for lunch on Sunday. Who hey showing
-
about you?
-
Hey?
-
Amen? How can two walk together?
-
Can two of them together except they be agreed, meaning
-
your brother Philip's ideology and my difference. We're not trying
-
to walk up. I'm out of step with him. I
-
can't pull with him. I can't get in and be
-
in the spirit with him.
-
Amen.
-
Until I larned my thought process with his aymen.
-
But his Lord was his ay man. He's aligned with
-
the word of God. Amen.
-
It's gonna be easy for me. And we only preach
-
the word of God and the whole truth and capture
-
of God.
-
Aymen.
-
It's up to us to line up and do it
-
the way God said. If you're out of step with
-
out a step with Bethel, you're out of step with
-
God's word. If you're out of step with a pastor,
-
you're out of step with the spirit of Wait man,
-
it it's your issue. May man, you're not walking together.
-
Aymen in God, Blessed prais God, communication of holier thing.
-
Thanks.
-
I'm i hurry Genesis thirty two and thirty one. I'm
-
trying to hurry. And as he passed over Paneul, the
-
sun rose upon him, and he halted upon his thigh.
-
Jacob would never live another day in his life.
-
And step with anyone else.
-
The world around him would never walk at Jacob's gate,
-
and Jacob would never walk at the world's gate again.
-
I remember, there's a lot of people that come this morning, Brother.
-
Before then they tell us, Amen, I'm walking out of
-
step with you, but I'm still in tune.
-
Ain't no way, ain't no way.
-
Friend. Jacob got a touch from God and it changed
-
his walk. And there is somebody this morning that needs
-
a touch from God. It'll change your walk, it'll change
-
your talk, it'll change your thought process, Amen, and you'll
-
never wander again. I mean, why am I not getting this?
-
Why is this not making stents? Why am I not
-
lining up with this? Amen, Jacob. Amen, praise God. Now
-
he led alivee. Amen, praise God, in tune with the Lord,
-
in tune with the word of God.
-
And what did God?
-
Somebody today would quit walking Amen, Amen the way.
-
They used to. There's a song that we used to sing. Amen.
-
One brother, I don't amen, talk so loud, and I
-
don't walk so proud.
-
I found the better way. Amen.
-
I got out of tune with pride. I got out
-
of cadence with the world. I got out of amen's
-
step with the devil. Amen, And now I walk in accord.
-
It's with the word of God.
-
I am in.
-
Tune with the spirit of a man. Praise God. There's
-
some people stand up men praise God. Mayn't God in
-
the more life or spiriting their soul? Theymen praise God
-
than the bomba on the street. Theymen this drink all night,
-
and you wonder and then why the service? They mean
-
feel a strain. Sometimes it's that they wasn't in tune
-
with God, they men. Sometimes it's that they didn't really pray.
-
They man praise God, and I thank God for everyone
-
that takes part of theymen in the beth of service.
-
They man the pastor calls on, has put in a
-
place where you can always tell they've prayed about what
-
to say. They been many times, brother Jacobs. They man
-
gets up here and says a couple of words. Amen,
-
And then the pastor gets up in priests and it's
-
right and stepha. They're stepping in time. They're walking in
-
the spirit. They been, May I ain't been many times?
-
Women.
-
Someone comes up and exhorts her, and it's right along
-
the lines of what God had for the service. Why
-
is that somebody walked in time?
-
Amen?
-
It was in tune with the spirit, man, and it
-
could be no different for you, amen. But it takes
-
effort on our part of Jacob wrestled. He said, that's
-
what I want, that's what I need. I need that
-
blessing God. I need that change. I need that work
-
of God in my life. Women, that I might walk
-
in the will of the Father and not fulfill the
-
lust of the flash a man. Amen, I'm coming to
-
a close verse number twenty one in closing. But as
-
for them whose heart walking after the heart of their
-
detestable things, why would you hold on to that? It's
-
literally detestable, it's disgusting, it's filthy, It makes others around
-
you despise you and look down on you. But then
-
they cling to it and say it makes me somebody,
-
My God, What a twisted mindset that's happening out there.
-
That's happening out there, Amen, Ephesians two and two. Wherein
-
in times past you walked according to the course of
-
this world, according to the Prince of the power of
-
the air. The spirit that now worketh in the children
-
of disobedience, there is a spirit that caused Hitler youth
-
to walk and sink. There's a spirit that's causing, Amen,
-
all these other movements. Amen, who can get their whole
-
life consumed with save the trees? Seriously, But they do,
-
brother Philip. They get so consumed that they've spit and
-
ripped mind in your faces off over a tree. They'd
-
save a rabbit, Amen, while somebody guts a little old
-
baby out here and an abortion clinic. What causes them
-
to walk and to dance to that tune? It's the
-
pied piper, It's that old slew foot.
-
Amen.
-
It is amen, that one, that spirit that worketh in
-
the children of disobedience. The warning this morning is if
-
you're stepping in time with them, you're stepping in time
-
with him.
-
Amen.
-
It's not gonna take anything for the Antichrist to blow
-
through your life.
-
Amen. And you're gonna fall on your amen knees and
-
say amen, he is the Christ. Amen.
-
You'll be consumed so quickly when you walk according to
-
the spirit of this world. But ask for them, Amen,
-
burst Umber twenty one of our golden texts. But ask
-
for them whose heart walking after the heart of their
-
detestable things and their abominations. I will recompense their way
-
on their own heads. Saith God, say God. In this
-
verse we begin to see the recopense, depending recompence of
-
the wicked. It hovers over everyone's head that walks, Amen,
-
after their own desires.
-
Amen. For you so to the wind, and you reap
-
the whirlwind.
-
You sow to destruction, you sow the pride of life,
-
and in the end it wrends you, it destroys you.
-
Amen.
-
But now have God set the members, every one of them,
-
in the body as it pleased him. If you're in
-
the true body, God puts you in your place. And
-
I can assure you Amen, there is no better place
-
for you.
-
There is no perfect place for you. Amen.
-
If you see a church member a man that seems
-
like they just don't go with God and the Spirit.
-
Make no mistake. God didn't put them there. They're out
-
of step with the Spirit. For God has fitly joined
-
together the bride of Christ. If you see someone that
-
struggles every Sunday morning, every Wednesday, it's real simple. I
-
don't have to question it, and you don't. They need
-
a new heart. It's real simple. Amen, in that person, Amen,
-
you better be careful taking spiritual counsel of that person.
-
You better be careful, Amen, listening to their voice above
-
the spirit. Amen, Because if they are not walking according
-
to the spirit, Amen, you are amen, literally opening the
-
door to the devil. Amen, in his spirit, that they
-
march in time to cowbod of whosh about you tae
-
ye by by huskle by da da day. When you
-
walk in your way, and then when you choose your path,
-
when you cling to your detestable things and men praise God.
-
When you are prone to step up, even out of
-
time and out of order with the spirit and man,
-
there is a heart issue at work. Remem brother Jesse,
-
would you come get us a song this morning? I mean,
-
I've tried to deliver my heart to you this morning
-
now Proverbs twenty five at nineteen inclosing comfidense and an
-
unfaithful man in time of trouble. It's like a broken
-
tooth and a foot out a joint. Why don't I
-
get used? And I don't think anybody questions this. Let
-
me just slide that in there from me. Why don't
-
God a man annoint me to sing? Why don't I
-
feel have you been faithful? Have you been abounding in
-
the work of truth? Have you been abounding in the
-
love of the Father? Or did your weekly walk look
-
no different than Bible lawns. Many come to God's house
-
and want God to use them, and they.
-
Have it been usable.
-
A man when the pastor did call on them, the
-
service felt this pastor priests a message and it is it.
-
It's something that the man that haunts me to prayer
-
in a good way.
-
Raw oysters every.
-
Time I've got to preach, and then I think of
-
that unseasoned word, and then that word that just just
-
wasn't right. Apples of golden, pictures of silver and man,
-
praise God. God can use you a man in the streets. Amen,
-
if you would be faithful, God can use you on
-
the job if you'd prove yourself, But why would he
-
call on you? And then you go out of line,
-
and you get out of the spirit, and you not
-
follow the word of God and the will God in
-
that conversation, and all of a sudden it turned about
-
you and your kingdom, and you slay a soul in
-
a moment.
-
It's happened by many.
-
This depicts also those who are never in tune, but
-
somehow always in step with the world.
-
And man, praise God.
-
Are you asked not to testify, to sing, to say something,
-
to take on a ministry in the church, and then
-
because you'd never be in tune? And Man, I hope
-
that's not the case, Ezekiel, would we go on to
-
proclaim some words that would be re uttered by the
-
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Ezekiel twelve and two said,
-
son of Man, thou dwellest in the midst of a
-
rebellious house, which have eyes to see and see not,
-
they have ears to hear, and hear not, For they
-
are a rebellious house. If it's taken you five years
-
to line up with the word of God, rebellion is
-
your issue. If it's taken you Amen, praise God even
-
a month Amen.
-
They get a message amen.
-
Or or a moral or an instruction that has been taught.
-
Amen.
-
A rebellion Amen is at work for the spirit of God.
-
Amen.
-
It speaks to them and they know the voice another
-
they're not going to follow.
-
That's the in tune individuals.
-
A Remember there's too many that are coming to church, Amen,
-
and they're completely out of touch and out of tune.
-
A man, first, if you would stand all over the
-
house this morning we're closing. First, Corinthians fourteen and forty said,
-
let all things be done decently and in order.
-
What of you, Amen?
-
Have you ever thought of your individual part to play
-
in the service? Why do you put any less prayer
-
into it than the past?
-
Does this sermon?
-
What of your part and role to play in the
-
altar service? Why is it any less spirit led than
-
the pastor and the altar service? Why are we not
-
walking in tune when God says you should.
-
Pray for that one.
-
When God says you should, Amen, Amen, have a burden
-
and carry Amen, this this burden and this cross for me. Ame,
-
it's overlooked because we're not in tune. There is much
-
for all of us, and I confess, Amen, I'm preaching
-
to myself this morning.
-
I want to be sensitive to the Spirit.
-
I want to be in touch and in tune and
-
in great grace and great power is what I desire.
-
There should be no liberties taken that wouldn't Amen normally
-
be taken.
-
Amen. For this is out of order. I mustlide that
-
in there. Amen. We have a wonderful church. Amen.
-
But we used to have Amen as soon as aball
-
and they felt Amen, they could get by with something.
-
They hobbled them little selves right out of the spirit.
-
They had no power in the church knew it.
-
Amen.
-
I wonder if anyone this morning would like to ben say, Lord,
-
I want to be in tune with you, even if
-
it takes a new heart. I want to walk according
-
to thy will. Lord, I'll put myself aside. May bet,
-
I'll walk according to the Spirit. I've tried to preach
-
according to his words this morning.
-
Amen.
-
But I feel like there's somebody Amen, that is in
-
the very Amen, Praise God, the epicenter of a phony relationship.
-
They profess something that they do not possess. And then
-
there are others Amen, including myself, that it would do
-
us well. Amen to start being more sensitive to what
-
God would have us do.
-
We don't need the limelight to do God's work.
-
We don't need the whole church focused on us to
-
go Amen and do our part. It might be praying
-
for someone that God leads you. It might be a
-
simple walk around the church you're a hand raised. It
-
might be Amen on Tuesday, Amen, on your lunch break,
-
when God quickens you to pray. A man who knows
-
when God would talk and when God would work.
-
Amen.
-
But God is asking someone someone this morning, would you come?
-
Would you say, Lord, it's me in the need of prayer.
-
I need a different walk God, I've got to walk
-
according to your word.
